I thought the Dear Leader didn't have to pope

This has so been done. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conclavism

Hefty tariffs on communion hosts

I mean... yes, that's what they do?

It's like, he was pretty woke for a Pope, but, he was still a Pope.

I don't think things would have worked out well had he gone full prog anyway. There'd be schisms for sure. Hell, Trump would probably declare an American Catholic Church and have himself elected Pope of it. (Shit, I really shouldn't have given him that idea)

I don't really know which way he personally felt. But even a Jesuit at the end of the day is a Catholic.

Is Francis really your name? What's on your birth certificate?

His last words: "Dear Father in heaven, that unsufferable man!"

But according to TERFs and fash, she is a guy though

There's some hope.... part of Francis' papacy involved him promoting more open-minded cardinals (who are the ones who choose popes) but we'll see

Hot take, but I dare say 4chan was the source of as much of what's good in internet culture as it was for much of what's the worst in internet culture.

Rickroll, Caturday, the modern meme format, reaction gifs, "TLDR", Anonymous (well, the good versions of it), spoderman, Rule 34, trollface, rageface, quite a bit of pet abuse justice, ... they may have even successfully set back AI chatbots nearly a full decade with their gaming of Microsoft's Tay chatbot... quite a lot of modern Internet slang such as win, fail, an hero, based, copypasta, creepypasta, "god tier", lulz, moar, sauce...

The thing about anarchy is that it brings out both the best and the worst.

Doesn't want to kernel dev anymore because of drama

Legit goes and starts a shit ton of kernel dev drama

No diss, but Kwanzaa was invented in the 1960s. It's not like a directly african tribally descended thing, though inspired by some (mostly Swahili and Zulu), it's something made for black american pride and reflection.
